Only From Heaven

Reggie Thomas receives a frantic call from her niece, Jennifer Fiala. Lizzie, Jen's mom and Reggie's younger sister, was found dead in her condo by a friend. Reggie flies to Florida to support Jen and her father, Franklin, Lizzie's "ex," while they arrange for the funeral and settle the estate. Introspection follows Reggie as she, Jen, and Frank reconnect and share their grief and memories of an enigmatic woman who continually pushed her family away---but why? A Monarch butterfly...a lady-in-white...what significance do they have as Reggie ponders her mixed emotions about her sister? How do they help Reggie find peace and understanding? Is she able to find reconciliation? ________________________________________ "If you like The Shack, you will love Only From Heaven. Deborah A Elster skillfully tells the story of a hard life that finds redemption in surprising places. This book is a great tonic for our present age." Mary Haley, award winning writer and author of The Great Potato Murder. "A story that rings true to life for anyone who has grown apart from a loved one and needs redemption, personally and spiritually." Rochelle Cassella, Congregational Director of Communications for the Sisters of St. Francis of the Neumann Communities "Only From Heaven is a dreamy story of love and loss and acceptance. Lizzie's depressive personality has a profound effect on those who love her. Funny how we all tend to feel we come up short when a family member carries such a burden...But as the lady-in-white offers peace, acceptance and unconditional love to Lizzie's sister, so can we...for ourselves and other."
